Dealers Notes

I can arrange delivery to you, whether you are within the UK or require an international delivery service, please do get in touch…as a mainland UK guide, a delivery for something around the size of a chest of drawers within approx 150 miles will be £75 to you, but if you if you are in Scotland, Wales, Ireland or Cornwall please get in touch to confirm delivery costs!

Based in Uppingham, Rutland…having been in the business for 25 years focusing on mostly French and English decorative antiques and interiors from the 18th to the early 20th century, hopefully a collection you will enjoy browsing and hopefully re home some of my finds!

Viewing here in Uppingham is very welcome in my spacious barn studio but also I have a showroom based within the Uppingham Antiques Centre, which is well worth a visit and have a good lunch in town too!

Any queries about anything you have seen or about delivery, don't hesitate to get in touch.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Originating in 18th-century France, Louis XV style commodes are characterised by curving bombee forms, cabriole legs, ornate cast metal mounts, and figure-grained wood veneers like burr walnut, frequently topped with a slab of marble.

Traditional French commodes feature timber carcasses finished with decorative veneers such as burr walnut, kingwood, or tulipwood, combined with solid marble tops and cast brass or bronze ormolu fittings.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints on drawer construction, oak or pine secondary timbers, cast brass or bronze fittings secured from behind, shaped marble slabs, and distinct natural burr walnut graining.

Position the commode as a focal point in an entryway, living room, or bedroom, balancing the visual weight of the figurative wood and brass mounts by pairing it with modern artwork or a large mirror above.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, apply a high-quality beeswax sparingly to the timber veneer annually, and clean the marble top using pH-neutral stone cleaners to prevent acid etching.
